Once again, a B.
The cases were interesting, and the creativity of the drunk groomsman was kinda cool.
Some things I noticed:
That poor little ring bearer almost took a header into the concrete steps. Careful there, cutie!
This is a new one: a corpse wrapped in bubble wrap stuffed with packing peanuts and a cell phone. Even Sid looks perplexed.
"Dead Ringer." Hehehe, Sid. Even Danny thinks you're funny.
TOD was 2-3AM but the curb wasn't painted until 6AM. Shouldn't it have been obvious the shoes were switched? C'mon Mac and Hawkes, you're supposed to be smarter than that.
Danny and Hawkes tandem processing montage! WOOT!
Yes, Lindsay, it makes perfect sense for you to stand there and interrogate Stella about the mystery box like she wouldn't have thought about the situation already.
Pissy!Stella. Tear that Drew freak a new one. Show us you've got your brain back around this guy and don't believe him.
Let's see, the puzzle is "top priority," but Adam has to figure it out alone while Lindsay processes a chunk of something found in the box and powder on one piece of the puzzle. And we get to see Lindsay shoot Adam one of her smug ass bitch looks while she goes off with the chunk.
Adam is proud of himself. You should be Adam, good work. But seriously, in the CSI world of almost instant test results we're supposed to believe it took Lindsay as long to figure out two small pieces of evidence in the same amout of time as it took Adam to scan all of the puzzle pieces, figure out it was a 3-D puzzle and put it all together? And then Stella tells Adam to reexamine the box for the missing piece after Lindsay has already processed it? Wow, what confidence you have in your CSI, Stel.
C'mon Stella, Drew sent the damn puzzle and probably left a piece there intentionally. I guess you haven't gotten your brain back after all. You have nothing to apologize for, Stel, the dude's suspicious.
I'm thinking they're focusing on the caterer's kid blowing bubbles for a reason that has nothing to do with his cuteness.
Stella finds Adam amusing, but Lindsay's too confused to do so. I guess that's why Adam is doing three times the work Lindsay is on this case.
Hawkes processing, Again. Hawkes needs more to do, although I am happy to see more of him so far this season.
Adam once again puts together the big ass puzzle. Stella examines the satchel and figures out what the wear pattern is. Lindsay finds out the chalk outline is the same chalk as on the puzzle, which would only make sense considering the chalk outline was at the scene where the next part of the puzzle was and that they found the scene in the first place from Adam putting together and figuring out the significance of the missing piece. And then, Lindsay and Stella figure out the case has no significance to Stella personally. Uh, Lindsay, you still have to figure out what's going on. You sound a lot like you think you're done working just because the case doesn't relate to Stella.
Adam also tracked the ankle bracelet.
Yes, Flack. George is the most stupid guy ever. But your and Mac's reactions to the dudes stupidity were priceless.
Danny gets to stab a pig! Poke that porker, Danny!
Adam and Danny! But wait, Adam's on the other case. Oh, he has time to help them identify the mystery substance. No wonder Adam is called "The X-Factor!" Be nice to "The X-Factor" Danny, don't be taking his money.
AHA!! I knew that kid and his bubbles would be important.
When interrogating the caterer about the all hours phone calls from the groom, we get the most ironic Danny line EVER "I wouldn't take that kind of crap from a friend." No, but apparrently you'll take a whole lot more crap from from a chick just to get laid.
The groom was an ass, but now you're going to jail and won't get to see your kid grow up. You should've just left the dude without food and a cake for his wedding. And Danny is once again very affected by the ramifications of the senseless crime.
We found out the last half of CSI: NY's motto: "Follow the evidence . . . because it all leads back to Mac."
Funniest thing of the epi:
Lindsay: "So where do we go now?"
Mac: "The roof top where I got engaged."
Cut to scene of Stella and Mac on the roof top. Hey Linds, maybe if you worked harder Mom and Dad would take you out with them more often. And try to at least look interested that you're helping Adam, Mom and Dad are watching.
Mac is in Chicago for three seconds and . . . Phone Call!!
Drew, is that you???
I don't know why I was so fixated on Lindsay this episode. It just really bugged me that she did so little work while Adam was working his ass off. She's obviously not that important, so why am I supposed to believe Mac hired her to come to NY from Monatna?
